fzf in Go
|
||
|
|
=========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This directory contains the source code for the new fzf implementation in Go.
|
||
|
|
This new version has the following benefits over the previous Ruby version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Immensely faster
|
||
|
|
- No GIL. Performance is linearly proportional to the number of cores.
|
||
|
|
- It's so fast that I even decided to remove the sort limit (`--sort=N`)
|
||
|
|
- Does not require Ruby and distributed as an executable binary
|
||
|
|
- Ruby dependency is especially painful on Ruby 2.1 or above which
|
||
|
|
ships without curses gem

Build

|
||
|
|
# Install the executable to ../bin directory
|
||
|
|
make install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Build executable for Linux x86_64 using Docker
|

Contribution
|

|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For the moment, I will not add or accept any new features until we can be sure
|
||
|
|
that the implementation is stable and we have a sufficient number of test
|
||
|
|
cases. However, fixes for obvious bugs and new test cases are welcome.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I also care much about the performance of the implementation (that's the
|
||
|
|
reason I rewrote the whole thing in Go, right?), so please make sure that your
|
||
|
|
change does not result in performance regression. Please be minded that we
|
||
|
|
still don't have a quantitative measure of the performance.
